I washed & polished the Morgan yesterday so it shone like a shiny thing, and today it is covered in a fine film of pollen. Aaaaargh. My fault for buying a black one I guess....

A black car is sooo beautiful when clean...but fame cost. Happy that I ordered mine in pollen colour - Sports White/Sports Ivory innocent

Think positive, if you ever think about buying another one...you now have a very good reason idea

The air in our locality is full of poplar "fluff" at the moment. Apart from the fact that nearly everyone has allergy problem with it it get in everywhere, even in a closed garage. Worse: if it falls on a damp surface it sticks. Thank goodness it only happens for a few weeks. banghead

I have managed to catch a cold and that coupled to the usual "spring fever" caused by the poplar pollen is giving me a very hard time. ranting

Drive it to Scotland, the hail, rain and wind will soon shift the pollen smile

Same problem here.

A California Duster (kind of a paraffin soaked soft brush) helps to remove the pollen and dust without washing the car.

Cheers,
Andy
